Ok so fairly new here.. trying to figure out best and most cost effective way to accomplish this

Have '10 g37 stock

Have set of wheels with matching bolt pattern but m14x1.5 thread size

so studs don't poke through when putting wheel on.. they are recessed about 1/4". I don't want to install new studs.. so I was thinking just put a spacer on that is just enough to cover the existing studs (1.25 I presume) then use longer studs in the spacers.

So my question is do they make spacers that come with longer than oem studs and if not, what size studs should I install in the spacers?

Local garages haven't been much help. There's even a guy selling the same wheels and has g37 listed as a matching fit, yet when I explain this situation he's at a loss.. other than just putting in all new studs.

 

They do have spacers with studs, I don't know how they would work with the same bolt pattern. I used to have a car, where everytime a shop would use the air gun to bolt on the wheels, the next time, the stud would strip. I would have to replace the stud. You probably should just have them installed. It used to cost me 25 a corner. Probably more now.

I guess that is one of the good things about the BMWs, the studs aren't built in, they bolt onto the axle.

 

You would have to run a thick spacer to get another set of studs, which can result in the wheel poking out farther than the fender and causing fitment issues. I would personally recommend getting a set of ARP extended studs as spacers can cause wear issues long term.

 

problem is i just did the brakes and rotors and don't want to pull everything apart again. rather sell the wheels or get spacers. I will have to measure but I don't think they will stick out past fender
